"So that's it..."
After hearing Zhou Cangshan's description, Zhou Xuan and Zhou Changkong finally understood the whole story, and they also had some guesses about what would happen in the future.
Zhou Changkong couldn't help but ask: "What then?"
"I didn't expect that the third elder has done so many things secretly. He is the third elder in the clan and is qualified to compete with me. Therefore, with half of the support, I can only ask the ancestor for instructions, and the ancestor vetoes the third elder. I think I will be the head of the family from now on."
Zhou Cangshan spoke weakly, his voice was very helpless.
When Zhou Xuan and Zhou Changkong heard this, they both understood. Even though the ancestors of the Zhou family have practiced in seclusion for many years, as the ancestors of the Zhou family, they must know the personalities of Zhou Cangshan and Zhou Taishan well, and they also know who is more suitable. Take on the role of the head of the family so that you can make the most appropriate choice.
However……
This is probably the straw that breaks the camel's back.
"After hearing what the ancestor said, I was relieved. I thought the matter would end there. Unexpectedly, the third child seemed to be very unable to accept the result. He openly had a big quarrel with me and then left the Zhou family. I thought that the third child was just out of anger and would come back soon, but I didn't expect that the third child actually disappeared for more than ten days."
Zhou Cangshan's voice gradually became heavier.
"I was a little worried in my heart, so I sent everyone in the clan to go out to search, but there was no news. Just a few days ago, Lao San suddenly led these monsters to come and wreak havoc on my Zhou family. Those monsters are extremely powerful and unstoppable. , the Zhou family suffered heavy casualties!"
Zhou Xuan and Zhou Changkong's expressions darkened, and they secretly said "Sure enough" in their hearts. It seemed as expected. Because they did not receive support from the ancestors of the Zhou family, Zhou Taishan's long-standing grievances completely burst out. Where did he find the support of the tiger and leopard clan, and he fought back to the Zhou family.
Since you can't get the position of head of the Zhou family, then you can take it by force.
Zhou Xuan cursed his stupidity in his heart. The position of the head of the Zhou family is not important at all. Zhou Taishan was stupid enough to risk his own life and seek help from the demon clan. Doing so was tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. Don't even think about it. I know that the reason why the Hubao clan agreed to Zhou Taishan's request must have another purpose.
Wait until the goal is achieved...
The Hubao Clan will definitely not leave Zhou Taishan alive.
Winning the position of head of the family - I am afraid it has become Zhou Taishan's lifelong obsession, and he even lost his mind for this.
"I don't know where Lao San found those extremely powerful demon clans. He could only defend to the death. However, he was no match. The ancestor had to step forward. Only then could he barely support the Zhou family, so that the demon clan could not easily We invaded the Zhou family and temporarily stopped fighting, but our ancestor is old and cannot hold on for long."
Zhou Cangshan said this with a look of pain on his face.
"Perhaps those demon clans saw this. They clearly had the opportunity to attack, but they did not rush. Instead, they waited for the ancestor to spend his strength, so that they could defeat my Zhou family without spending a single soldier. The ancestor saw this and asked me to leave the Zhou family secretly and go out to ask for help, so as to at least preserve the fire of the Zhou family."
"I led some young descendants of the Zhou family. We had just left the Zhou family, and before we even thought about where to go for help, we were chased by these monsters. We were defeated..."
Zhou Cangshan finally said everything, but before he could stop, his energy and blood suddenly surged, and he spurted out another mouthful of black blood.
Zhou Xuan's face changed slightly, and he immediately knelt down and touched several of Zhou Cangshan's acupuncture points, but his expression remained solemn, because it had no effect at all.
Zhou Cangshan was still vomiting blood and even bleeding from all his orifices!
"Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan..."
Zhou Changkong was completely frightened when he saw this scene. He stared at Zhou Xuan blankly, hoping that Zhou Xuan could find a way.
Zhou Xuan had no choice but to shake his head: "I have tried my best to survive, but his Qi, sea, and meridians were destroyed before he could talk to you and me. He has already returned to the light. Now the oil is exhausted and there is no possibility of cure. If There are some strong medicines, and there may be some chance to continue to live, but there is no time..."
Zhou Xuan shook his head again and did not continue.
"How could it be, how could it be..."
Zhou Changkong was completely desperate and looked at Zhou Cangshan blankly. He never imagined that Zhou Cangshan would fall here.
Just at this time.
Zhou Cangshan suddenly stretched out a bloody hand and firmly grasped Zhou Xuan's wrist. Even though he was vomiting blood in his throat, he still widened his bleeding eyes and said with difficulty: "Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan, I know that the Zhou family, The Zhou family owes you a debt, but, however, the Zhou family should not die, please save my Zhou family, please save my Zhou family..."
Zhou Cangshan stared at Zhou Xuan closely, as if he wanted to say something, but he completely lost his strength. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, tilted his neck, and died. Only a palm stained with blood was still holding Zhou tightly. Xuan's wrist.
After a while, it slowly slid down.
Zhou Xuan's face was ugly. He looked at the blood stains on his wrists and remained silent without words. He knew best that Zhou Cangshan had run out of gas. However, at the last moment of his death, Zhou Cangshan grabbed the palm of his wrist. It was so... powerful.
Please save my Zhou family.
These five words echoed in Zhou Xuan's mind for a long time and were difficult to disperse.
Zhou Xuan was silent.
Zhou Xuan once had infinite resentment towards Zhou Cangshan, and even wanted to kill him quickly. If it weren't for Zhou Cangshan's acquiescence, his sister Zhou Qingwu would not have almost died, but he still clearly remembers his second uncle. , when he was a child, he and his naive sister often took him out to play and see all around.
He still remembered that his sister Zhou Qingwu once sat on Zhou Cangshan's neck and kept pulling Zhou Cangshan's white beard. Zhou Cangshan, who had always been extremely majestic, did not blame him and was smiling all over his face.
this moment.
Countless memories came to mind.
Zhou Xuan clenched his fists, feeling a little painful in his heart. Blood and family ties are always bound by ties. The key is that what happened back then did not make Zhou Xuan too resentful.
Zhou Xuan has matured a lot.
He knew in his heart that if his and Zhou Cangshan's identities were exchanged, seeing that the selection of the five major martial arts houses in the Qin Dynasty was approaching, the strongest genius in the family was possessed and found it difficult to participate in the selection. His third brother, whom he trusted, promptly proposed a replacement candidate. I'm afraid it's hard not to hesitate in my heart...
What else can be done?
Zhou Xuan looked at Zhou Cangshan's miserable body and was speechless for a long time, feeling indescribably touched.
"Second uncle..."
Zhou Changkong also stared at Zhou Cangshan's body in confusion, and then as if he suddenly remembered something, he quickly knelt down towards Zhou Xuan and kowtowed fiercely: "Zhou Xuan, Brother Zhou Xuan, please, I beg you, please save me." My Zhou family, please save my Zhou family!"
